The hate mail the poor kid has gotten is just crazy insane. They they really rip into him not only for killing the pig, but for being Christian and fat.
Pretty sad. He's only 11.

I still think to this day, one of the best universes created, with the best characters, relationships, "magic systems" and endings in a series. nothing too farfetched from the characters (no real deus ex machina like alfrend never really becomes coren, he doesnt cheasily decide to be great and save the world, he just CAN'T and I'll just say that the handshake at the end (on the fort or something) was one of the best things to happen in a book. the whole labyrith section is pure booksex. ok Marit was a little emo somtimes. Xar kicked ass.
I got to play vivia pinata, GoW, and ninety nine nights, which are all cool.
just got back from the sexual health clinic. results will be on friday, whatever this is, it hurts like hell, is incredibly uncomfortable, and has made me unable to have any type of sex whatsoever all week. and another week of the same joy coming up.

My roommate and I have been throwing huge parties every weekend for the past few months now, and I've been the appointed DJ. Things have been great so far and I have the beginning of the playlist covered with upbeat rock/dance material (NIN, Smashing Pumpkins, LCD Soundystem, Radiohead, Beck, Cake, Arcade Fire, Flaming Lips, etc.) to ease into things, but need help with the bass/beat-heavy late night tunes as that's not a genre I'm very familiar with.
I need tracks that mandate ass-shaking. To give you an idea of what I'm looking for, here are some tracks that have been very well received by people so far:

maybe i'm spoiled by this apple macbook pro, but holy living fuck...buying and using a PC laptop for the first time is a fucking NIGHTMARE. and yes, i know this is true for desktops too, and for basically any 'name brand' pc.
you have 10 fucking programs that run automatically on startup, bombarding the user with questions and prompts (connect to AOL or your high speed ISP, symantec autoprotect, HP "support center", etc etc). THen you have a shitton of icons on the desktop: ebay (wtf), aol, "try vonage", rhapsody, etc etc.
fucking shit, so much stuff to uninstall and disable so the powerup process can actually take less than 2 minutes. and then there's all the stickers and advertisements all over the case of the laptop.
what the fuck, PC makers? this is just way too complicated and confusing for the "normal" laptop user...and just too much. i shouldn't have to delete 10 icons on the user's desktop that they don't need at all, jsut because you guys want to advertise and make more money. and i shouldn't have to setup 5 programs on initial startup (or disable them) so the user can actually figure out wtf is going on when they turn on the pc. ugh. i swear, i'm becoming a mac guy :(

What was the big controversy surrounding the "midiclorians" stuff? A bunch of starwars fans were angry because it basically meant in the starwars universe that they could never be jedi's in fantasyland or something?

The 360's not dead, it just claims that every disk I stick in there is unreadable. :(
I blame Spider-man 3, because while I was playing that the other night it started making this loud horrible noise from the disk drive so I shut off the console. Came back a little while latter turned it on poped in a movie and it said disk unreadable. I thought maybe it was just the movie, so I tried a few games and none of them will play. Everything else works fine, except for the disk drive. Any known fixes for this, or am I gonna have to send to microsft for repairs?

What would be the best way to automatically harvest data from a number of sites/RSS feeds and store it in a mysql database for later analysis? Maybe a PHP script running on a cron?
